Field Wiring Guidelines
Original instructions
Overview
Inputs are field wired to row 1 of the base. This section contains wiring guidelines and precautions.
Terminal Connector
To connect field devices to the I/O base, you need a field wiring terminal connector. Schneider Electric sells terminal connectors in sets of three.

CAUTION
POTENTIAL FOR SHORT CIRCUITS AND/OR POWER-UP SPIKES
Provide external fuses on the operating voltage to protect the module. Appropriate fuse values are shown in the wiring illustration. An unprotected module may be subject to short circuits and/or power-up spikes.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
A busbar may be attached to this I/O base to provide a fourth row for protective earth (PE).
